The First Steps of S/S 2010 Shoe Trends
| There is no doubt, fashion goes with the times and looks without fear at economic crises. In Spring – Summer 2010 you will be able to enjoy diversity of colors that throws down the gauntlet to economic and social problems the mankind faces nowadays. |
|
| The first impression is shoe designers have decided to steady down and reject extravagant ideas. Their motto today is authenticity and naturalness. Perhaps for the first time in fashion history shoes presented at Fashion Weeks will be good not only for models demonstrating them at the stage but also for wearing. |
 |
| There is a tendency for creativity, modernity and a bit for derisiveness. Shoe designers are sure that every woman will find something to fit her personal tastes and preferences. Color gamut is presented by an unexpected blend of colors. Here you may see both quiet and flashy tints. At the same time the choice of colors is careful and scrupulous. So called transitional tints will play the key role in S/S 2010 but pastel shades will lose attractiveness. They can be used only in addition to deep blue or green. |
|
| As far as materials are concerned, color gamut influences the choice. The best variant is snake or crocodile leather that always looks chic and up to date. The principle of Spring – Summer 2010 is lightness, naturalness and softness. That’s why calf leather is to be a favorite of the season, though other variant are also used. Pay attention to elements and inserts made of suede, velour and velvet as well. One more tip is don’t forget about retro style. |
 |
| Actually, the experiments with materials are in process now, so any new bold decision may be welcome. Creating new shoe models designers never forget about quality. Remember that leather should be worked up. It is necessary that a foot can “breathe”, so choosing footwear pay attention not only to style but also to comfort and durability. |
Get Ready for Winter 2010
| Since winter will soon be here, it is high time to discuss what models will prevail in the season to come and what can shoe designers advice us. It is not a secret that every woman wants to be unique and charming, thus designers this season try to meet everybody’s needs. Their collections are presented by a vast range of heels, platforms, thigh-high boots or flats. |
  |
| The most unexpected and unusual trend of the season is rain boots. They are considered to be the newest look of winter 2010. Some women admire them, others hate. However, some celebrities have already made their choice and decided in favor of rain boots. Among them I can call Kate Moss and Angelina Jolie. So the choice is up to you. |
 
|
| But those who prefer classics will never agree to reject womanly heels or comfortable flats. Designers’ collections offer incredibly sexy heels such as this one from Demonia. The boot features a sexy pointy toe, front platform rise and a full inner side zipper. What’s more, they are pretty comfortable. You may wear them both for work and parties. |

Look out, Men! Rock Style Women Are Coming!
| Rock style has been incredibly popular for many years and even decades. At first, it was only the trend of music. Later on, the rock mania has spread to other spheres of our life. So what can we see now? The rock style has come into fashion lately. Look out, men! Today women wear rock style shoes. The only thing is fashion designers add a bit of glamour to their masterpieces. And as a result we can see impressive and sometimes shocking models. Well, let us take a good look at them. |
 |
| The first offer for fashion lovers was made by designers of Givenchy. Actually, this brand is known for creating the most unexpected and vanguard shoe models. Thus it is no wonder that a new rock style shoe from Givenchy has been included in the list of the hottest novelties of the season. |
| The distinctive feature of the shoe is numerous adornments. But don’t think that it is precious stones or beads, nothing of the sort; the top of the shoe is trimmed with multiple spikes, even the part of sole is adorned with them. The shoe features a high triangle heel that looks quite aggressive due to the quantity of spikes. Nevertheless, the designers have tried to soften aggressiveness by matching the shoe with light short dress made of silk. |
 |
| But the second model is much more womanly and refined. This shoe is the result of Proenza Schouler designers’ imagination. The rock style in their shoe is far less aggressive. The sandal features silver metal rivets. Moreover, only the part of upper is trimmed with them, while the rest of the shoe is quiet in color and style. The designers made an emphasis on laces twisting the ankle. |
 |
| And at last the most quiet and feminine model is presented by Sergio Rossi. The designer used lots of thin straps adorned with black crystals. The zest of the model is an unusual zigzag heel which makes the shoe look surrealistic. In fact, designers offer lots of interesting variants of Surrealistic Shoes which are one of the latest trends for fall-winter 2009/10. |
